Safety
Kimba, Kimba Cross, Kimba Inline

WARNING
Improper handling of packaging materials
Risk of suffocation due to neglect of the duty to supervise
►Packaging materials must be kept out of the reach of children.
Hazards when removing/mounting the seat
WARNING
Improper removal/mounting of the seat, improper unfolding/folding of the outdoor mobility base
User may fall due to user error
►Please note that no children are permitted to be in the seat while removing/mounting the seat or folding the
outdoor mobility base.
Hazards when getting in
CAUTION
Wheel lock not engaged when getting in or out
Falling, tipping over of the user due to user error
►Before the user gets in or out, always engage and check the wheel lock.
►Engage the wheel lock to prevent the rehab buggy from moving on uneven ground or during transfers (e.g.
into a car).
Hazards while driving
WARNING
Pushing too fast
Tipping over, falling of the user due to caster wheel wobble
►The swivelling front wheels may begin to wobble at higher speeds and lead to an abrupt stop, causing the
rehab buggy to tip over forwards.
►Therefore, push the rehab buggy only at normal walking speed or engage the swivel lock (see section "Use").
It is not permissible to let go of the push bar while pushing the buggy or to thrust it away from you.
WARNING
Unsupervised parking
Falling out, falling of the user due to neglect of the duty to supervise
►Never leave the user unattended, not even when the positioning belts or safety belts are secured and the
wheel locks are activated.
WARNING
Impermissible use
Tipping over, rolling over of the user due to failure to observe specifications
►Using a rehab buggy beyond normal conditions may be dangerous.
►Please note that this product is not suitable for jogging, running, skating, etc. (not Kimba Cross).
►Do not exceed the maximum load capacity (see the section "Technical data").
CAUTION
Lack of driving experience
Tipping over, falling due to errors in handling the product
►Practice on level, open ground first.
►Learn with the support of an assistant how the rehab buggy reacts to changes in the centre of gravity, e.g.
downward or upward slopes, inclines or when overcoming obstacles.
►Always activate the anti-tipper (if any).
11Kimba, Kimba Cross, Kimba Inline
Safety

CAUTION
Incorrect centre of gravity setting
Falling of the user due to extreme settings
►Check the standard adjustments of the rehab buggy for stability against tipping and the ergonomically correct
sitting position of the user. Avoid any extreme settings.
CAUTION
Changed centre of gravity after operating the seat tilt
Tipping over, falling out of the user due to adjustment error
►Check the tip resistance each time after changing the seat tilt, especially in combination with a back support
angle setting. Secure theoutdoor mobility base against tipping due to the shift in the centre of gravity.
►Avoid any extreme settings.
►Do not suspend loads on the push handles since this would additionally change the centre of gravity.
CAUTION
Change in centre of gravity following back angle adjustment
Falling over, falling out of the user due to adjustment errors
►After each modification of the back angle, check the tilt stability. To do so, hold the product with both hands
by the push handle/push bar.
CAUTION
Risky operation
Falling, tipping over backwards due to approaching obstacles incorrectly
►Push slowly when crossing obstacles (e.g. steps, curbs) and negotiating uphill or downhill slopes and
inclines.
►Never cross obstacles at an angle. Always approach obstacles head on (at an angle of 90°).
►Raise the front wheels before crossing obstacles.
►Avoid collisions with obstacles and dropping off curbs/ledges.
►Avoid riding cross-country.
Hazards when overcoming obstacles
WARNING
Overcoming steps and obstacles without assistance
Tipping over, falling of the user due to failure to observe transportation instructions
►Always have accompanying persons help you negotiate steps and other obstacles.
►Use available facilities (e.g. access ramps or lifts).
CAUTION
Improper lifting by attendants
Tipping over, falling of the user due to lifting by removable components
►Attendants may lift the buggy only by welded or permanently attached components (e.g.front frame tube
above the front wheels, rear axle).
►It is particularly dangerous to lift the buggy by the unfixed push handle/push bar.
Hazards due to fire, heat and cold
CAUTION
Extreme temperatures
Hypothermia or burns due to contact with components, failure of components
►Do not expose the product to any extreme temperatures (e.g.direct sunlight, sauna, extreme cold).
►Do not leave the product in the immediate vicinity of heaters.
